Answer:

1. can

2. less

3. 5

Step-by-step explanation:

To find out if Waclaw could make it to the gas station using 10 miles, we need to add the number of miles he has to go in order to reach his destination.

$4\frac{7}{8}+4\frac{3}{4} = 9\frac{5}{8}\\$

9 5/8 is less than 10, so he can make it to the gas station.

We can also find out the answer without even adding the numbers together, because both values are less than five, and when that happens, the sum cannot be 10 or more, so Waclaw can make it to the gas station.

Blababa [14]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The rule of dilation is $D_{Q,\frac{2}{3}}.$ This means that each distance QX' is equal to $\dfrac{2}{3}QX,$ where X is initial point and X' is its image after dilation.
